==Known Issues==

+

* This test image includes the updates-testing repository enabled by default.

−

* Yum requires the system time be correct for HTTPS to function. If yum updates are not working check your clock.

+

−

* Versatile Express images require the kernel parameter 'physmap.enabled=0' be passed to boot correctly. This is included in the boot-vexpress and boot-vexpress+x scripts.

+

* Images were composed using tools in Fedora 17 due to continuing work on Fedora 18.

−

* The tar.xz rootfs archives do not preserve SELinux information or file capabilities. If you use these to create your own filesystem image it is recommended that you switch SELinux to use warnings instead of enforcing for first boot, then relabel and reinstall packages that rely upon filesystem capabilities such as glibc-common and ping.
